Percy Bysshe Shelley Quotes
Poetry Is Not Like Reasoning, A Power To Be Exerted According To The Determination Of The Will. A Man Cannot Say, 'I Will Compose Poetry.' The Greatest Poet Even Cannot Say It; For The Mind In Creation Is As A Fading Coal, Which Some Invisible Influence, Like An Inconstant Wind, Awakens To Transitory Brightness ... And The Conscious Portions Of Our Natures Are Unprophetic Either Of Its Approach Or Its Departure.
